Resolution 1 seeks ratification by Shareholders for the issue of 496,000 Shares previously issued by the Company.

ASX Listing Rule 7.1 provides that a listed company must not issue or agree to issue equity securities if, when aggregated with other issues or agreements to issue of equity securities over the previous 12 month period and not subject to an exception to ASX Listing Rule 7.1, the number of equity securities to be issued or agreed to be issued exceeds 15% of the number of fully paid ordinary securities of the company on issue at the commencement of that 12 month period.

Under ASX Listing Rule 7.4 it is possible for shareholders to approve an issue of securities which has already taken place, with the effect that the approved issued will be exempt from being counted towards the portion of the 15% limit that has been used. That is, if Resolution 1 is approved, the Shares will not be included in the Company’s 15% calculation for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1.

In compliance with the information requirements of Listing Rule 7.5, Shareholders are advised of the following particulars in relation to the issue of Shares pursuant to Resolution 1:

(a) Number of securities allotted and issued

496,000 Shares were issued.

(b) Date of Issue

The Shares were issued on 12 June 2015.

No consideration was paid to the Company for the Shares. The consultants provided services to the Company and in lieu of being paid cash for their services, were issued with the Shares the subject of this Resolution.

(d) The terms of the securities

The Shares are ordinary fully paid shares which rank equally with existing Shares on issue.

(e) The basis on which allottees were determined

The Shares will be issued to consultants listed above as consideration for Services rendered to the Company.

The Board recommends Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 1 as it allows the Company to retain the flexibility to issue further securities representing up to 15% of the Company’s share capital during the next 12 months without the requirement to obtain prior Shareholder approval.

8

4. Ratification of Share Issue – Placement to Sophisticated Investors (Resolution 2)

Resolution 2 seeks ratification by Shareholders for the issue of 3,470,000 Shares pursuant to the Placement. These Shares were issued without Shareholder approval. Resolution 2 seeks Shareholder ratification pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.4 of the Shares issued under the Placement.

ASX Listing Rule 7.1 provides that a listed company must not issue or agree to issue equity securities if, when aggregated with other issues or agreements to issue of equity securities over the previous 12 month period and not subject to an exception to ASX Listing Rule 7.1, the number of equity securities to be issued or agreed to be issued exceeds 15% of the number of fully paid ordinary securities of the company on issue at the commencement of that 12 month period.

Under ASX Listing Rule 7.4 it is possible for shareholders to approve an issue of securities which has already taken place, with the effect that the approved issued will be exempt from being counted towards the portion of the 15% limit that has been used. That is, if Resolution 2 is approved, the Shares will not be included in the Company’s 15% calculation for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1.

In compliance with the information requirements of Listing Rule 7.5, Shareholders are advised of the following particulars in relation to the issue of Shares pursuant to Resolution 2:

(a) Number of securities allotted and issued

3,470,000 Shares were issued.

(b) Date of Issue

The Shares were issued on 12 June 2015.

(c) Price at which securities were allotted and issued

$0.10 per Share.

(d) The terms of the securities

The Shares are ordinary fully paid shares which rank equally with existing Shares on issue.

(e) The basis on which allottees were determined

The Shares were issued to sophisticated and professional investors none of which are related parties of the Company. The Company intends to use the funds raised from the Placement towards the completion of a pre-feasibility study over the Leonora Gold Project.

The Board recommends Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 2 as it allows the Company to retain the flexibility to issue further securities representing up to 15% of the Company’s share capital during the next 12 months without the requirement to obtain prior Shareholder approval.

If shareholders ratify the issue of the 3,470,000 Shares, they will be exempt from being counted towards the portion of the 15% limit that has been used.

5. Approval to Issue Unlisted Options (Resolution 3)

As detailed in Section 2 of this Explanatory Statement, the Company undertook the Placement to raise up to $1,000,000 (before transaction costs).

Resolution 3 seeks Shareholder approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 for the issue of up to 5,000,000 Options for nil consideration to subscribers under the Placement on the basis of one (1) Unlisted Option for every two (2) Shares subscribed for.

9

A summary of ASX Listing Rule 7.1 is set out in Section 4 above.

The issue of the Unlisted Options to the subscribers was not able to be completed at the time of issue of the Placement Shares the subject of Resolution 2 because there was no further placement capacity available and so their issue is subject to Shareholder approval.

The effect of Shareholders approving Resolution 3 is to allow the Company to issue the Options during the three (3) months after the General Meeting (or a longer period of allowed by the ASX), without using the Company’s 15% placement capacity.

The following information is provided in accordance with the requirements of ASX Listing Rule 7.3:

(a) Number of Unlisted Options to be issued

The maximum number of Options to be issued is 5,000,000.

(b) Date of issue

The Options will be issued no later than three (3) months after the date of the meeting (or such other date as is permitted by an ASX waiver of the Listing Rules, the Corporations Act 2001 and/or the Australian Securities and Investments Commission) and it is intended that the issue will occur on the same date.

(c) Price at which Options were allotted and issued

The Options will be issued for nil consideration as they are free with the Placement Shares at a ratio of 1 Option for every 2 Shares subscribed for and issued.

(d) The terms of the Options

The Options will be issued to the subscribers under the Placement. The Options will be issued on the terms and conditions as set out in Schedule 1.

(e) The intended use of the funds raised

No funds will be raised from the issue of the Options as the Options will be issued for nil consideration on a free attaching basis.

6. Approval to Complete a Share Purchase Plan (Resolution 4)

As detailed in Section 2 of this Explanatory Statement, the Company is providing an opportunity to Eligible Shareholders to participate in the SPP Offer.

Resolution 4 seeks shareholder approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 for the issue of the SPP Shares and SPP Options under the SPP Offer.

The SPP Offer will be conducted on the same terms as the Placement enabling Shareholders to participate in the Capital Raising on substantially the same terms as the subscribers under the Placement the subject of Resolution 2.

The Company proposes to make the SPP Offer to Eligible Shareholders in a manner materially the same as a traditional share purchase plan. The SPP Offer will be for Shares at an issue price of 10 cents per Shares with one free attaching Option for each two Shares subscribed for and issued.

The offer of Unlisted Options under the SPP Offer means the Company cannot rely on the relief provided by ASIC Class Order [CO 09/425] to make that component of the offer without a prospectus. As a result both the Shares and the Unlisted Options the subject of the SPP Offer will be made pursuant to a Prospectus for the purposes of Chapter 6D of the Corporations Act.

10

Under the SPP Offer, the Company will seek to issue a maximum of 20,000,000 Shares at an issue price of $0.10 per Share and 10,000,000 attaching Unlisted Options. The Company will raise up to $2,000,000 from the issue of the Shares, with the potential for further funds to be raised if the attaching Options are exercised.

Under the SPP Offer, Eligible Shareholders will be able to apply for up to 30,000 Shares (i.e. payment of $3,000) and in the event more than $2,000,000 is applied for, applications will be scaled back. In the event less than $2,000,000 is applied for, the balance will revert to the Shortfall Offer to continue beyond the closing date of the SPP Offer. Applications under the Shortfall Offer will be dealt with at the Directors’ discretion. Further details of the SPP Offer and the Shortfall Offer will be set out in a prospectus to be distributed to Eligible Shareholders and made available on the ASX company announcements platform.

It is intended that the proceeds of the SPP Offer (and any funds raised on the exercise of the attaching Options) and where the SPP Offer is not fully subscribed the proceeds of the Shortfall Offer also, will be used by the Company to fund development work with respect to the Leonora Gold Project.

A summary of ASX Listing Rule 7.1 is set out above in relation to Resolution 1.

Resolution 4 seeks Shareholder approval for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 7.1 for the issue of the Shares and Options the subject of the SPP Offer and the Shortfall Offer during the three (3) months after the General Meeting (or a longer period of allowed by the ASX), without using the Company’s 15% placement capacity.

A voting exclusion applies to Resolution 4. Under that voting exclusion, Eligible Shareholders, being a person who may participate in the proposed issue, are, in the absence of a waiver from ASX Listing Rule 7.3.8, excluded from voting on Resolution 4. The Company intends to apply for a waiver from ASX Listing Rule 7.3.8 to enable Eligible Shareholders to vote in relation to Resolution 4 notwithstanding they may participate in the proposed issue. The outcome of the waiver application will be advised by way of an ASX announcement prior to the date of the Meeting. If the waiver is not granted by ASX, the only Shareholders who will be entitled to vote in relation to Resolution 4 are those who are not eligible to participate in the SPP Offer (because they were Shareholders at the Record Date but have a registered address outside Australia or New Zealand, or they were not Shareholders on the record date) or, at the time of voting they have not applied for Shares and Options under the SPP Offer.

7.4 Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act

For a public company, or an entity that the public company controls, to give a financial benefit to a related party of the public company, the public company or entity must:

  • (a) obtain the approval of the public company’s members in the manner set out in sections 217 to 227 of the Corporations Act; and

  • (b) give the benefit within 15 months following such approval,

unless the giving of the financial benefit falls within an exception set out in sections 210 to 216 of the Corporations Act.

The grant of the Related Party Securities constitutes giving a financial benefit and Mr Dixon, Mr Graziano, Mr Fitton and Mr Grammer are related parties of the Company by virtue of each of them being a Director.

The Directors consider that Shareholder approval pursuant to Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act is not required in respect of the issue of the Related Party Securities because the payment of directors’ fees and the agreement to pay Mr Dixon, were reached as part of the remuneration package for Mr Dixon, and are considered reasonable remuneration in the circumstances and was negotiated on an arm’s length basis.

7.5 ASX Listing Rule 10.11

ASX Listing Rule 10.11 also requires shareholder approval to be obtained where an entity issues, or agrees to issue, securities to a related party of the entity which includes directors, an associate of the director, or a person whose relationship with the entity, director or associate of the director is, in ASX’s opinion, such that approval should be obtained.

As the issue of the Related Party Securities to Directors involves the issue of securities of a related party of the Company, Shareholder approval pursuant to Listing Rule 10.11 is required unless an exception

13

applies. It is the view of the Directors that the exceptions set out in Listing Rule 10.12 do not apply in the current circumstances.

Approval pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1 is not required for the issue of the Related Party Securities as approval is being obtained under Listing Rue 10.11. Accordingly, the issue of the Related Party Securities to the Directors (or their nominees) will be not be included in the use of the Company’s annual 15% annual placement capacity pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1.

7.6 Technical Information required by ASX Listing Rule 10.13

The Shares and Options will be issued no later than one (1) month after the date of the meeting (or such other date as is permitted by an ASX waiver of the Listing Rules, the Corporations Act 2001 and/or the Australian Securities and Investments Commission) and it is intended that the issue of the Related Party Securities will occur on the same date.

Approval pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1 is not required for the issue of the Related Party Securities as approval is being obtained under ASX Listing Rule 10.11.

(h) Status of Securities

8 Section 195 Approval (Resolution 9)

9 Approval to Issue Convertible Notes (Resolution 10)

On the 25[th] of February 2015 the Company announced that it has agreed to issue convertible notes to a sophisticated investor (“ Convertible Note Holder ”) with a face value of up to $900,000 to assist the Company financing the commercial development of the Lewis Prospect which forms part of the Cardinia Project.

A term sheet contains the material terms set out below:

  • (ii) the consent of Waterton Global Value LLP (“ Waterton ”) pursuant to the Waterton security documents and the execution of any priority or subordination deed requested by Waterton as a condition of execution of the Security. The rights of the Convertible Note Holder remain subject to the prior rights of Waterton’s existing security and financing arrangements with the Company; and

  • (iii) the Shareholders approving the issue of all Convertible Notes issued or to be issued under the First Tranche pursuant to the ASX Listing Rules.

  • (c) the second tranche of $500,000 is subject to and conditional upon:

  • (i) the Company confirming to the Convertible Note Holder that construction of all infrastructure has been completed and mining operations on M37/86 and M37/227 (being that part of the Cardinia Project known as the “Lewis” prospect) are able to commence;

  • (e) The Company has the right to redeem the Convertible Notes at any time by repayment of the outstanding monies before the maturity date.

  • (f) If the Convertible Note has not been redeemed or converted on or before the maturity date, the Company must repay the $900,000. Events of default include the failure to pay money due under the convertible note, failing to remedy a breach of the Convertible Note or undergoing an event of insolvency.

  • (g) The conversion price is determined on the following basis:

  • (i) If the Company’s closing Share Price on the date of the Conversion Notice is above $0.18, the Issue Price will be the price equal to a 15% discount to the average volume weighted Share Price over the 30 trading days prior to the date of the Conversion Notice;

  • (ii) If the Company’s closing Share Price on the date of the Conversion Notice is between $0.12 and $0.18, the Issue Price will be the price equal to a 20% discount to the average volume weighted Share Price over the 30 trading days prior to the date of the Conversion Notice; and

  • (iii) If the Company’s closing Share Price on the date of the Conversion Notice is below $0.12, the Issue Price will be the price equal to a 25% discount to the average volume weighted Share Price over the 30 trading days prior to the date of the Conversion Notice in the case of an issue of Shares:

15

ASX Listing Rule 7.1 provides that a listed company must not issue or agree to issue equity securities if, when aggregated with other issues or agreements to issue of equity securities over the previous 12 month period and not subject to an exception to ASX Listing Rule 7.1, the number of equity securities to be issued or agreed to be issued exceeds 15% of the number of fully paid ordinary securities of the company on issue at the commencement of that 12 month period.

By approving Resolution 10, the Company will retain the flexibility to issue equity securities in the future up to the 15% annual placement capacity set out in ASX Listing Rule 7.1 without the requirement to obtain prior shareholder approval.

The number of Shares that may be issued if the Company does elect to convert the Convertible Notes is unknown at present because the conversion price of the Convertible Note to determine the number of Shares to be issued is based on the formula set out in paragraph (g) above. Examples of difference scenarios are set out below:

Assumed conversion price prior to
MaturityDate
Conversion Price Number of Shares to be
Issued
$0.19
$0.15
$0.10
$0.1652
$0.125
$0.08
5,447,942
7,200,000
11,250,000

The following information is provided in accordance with the requirements of ASX Listing Rule 7.3:

(a) Number of securities to be issued

A maximum of 900,000 convertible notes may be issued to the Convertible Note Holder. If all of the Convertible Notes are converted at the election of the Convertible Note Holder then the maximum number of Shares to be issued is unknown at this time because the conversion price is determined in accordance with the formula set out above. The table above sets out some possible scenarios as to the number of Shares which may be issued if the conversion does occur.

(b) Date of issue

Any convertible notes will be issued no later than three (3) months after the date of the meeting (or such other date as is permitted by an ASX waiver of the Listing Rules, the Corporations Act 2001 and/or the Australian Securities and Investments Commission) and it is intended that the issue of the convertible notes will occur on the same date.

The Shares will be issued to the Convertible Note Holder who is an unrelated sophisticated investor.
